Refusing to conform to a genre, Melbourne, Australia’s Five Star Prison
Cell (FSPC) is intent on forging its own path, fusing a wide range of styles to
create bold, cutting edge, heavy music.
Since debuting in 2005 FSPC has turned heads with their ability to switch time,
pace, genre, and style with unnerving speed. Their fresh, unique sound
coupled with their intense live shows has led to a loyal and ever-growing
following.
The band’s debut full length album, “The Complete First Season” was released in 2005, earning them rave reviews and a prestigious regional tour support slot with Arch Enemy (Sweden). The band kept building momentum, and in 2006 FSPC supported Danzig (USA) as they toured the east coast of Australia. Throughout the year FSPC shared the stage with Australian heavyweights Blood Duster, Spiderbait, Psycroptic, Daysend, Fuck... I’m Dead, Alarum, Karnivool, and Alchemist among others. They also secured a spot on Queensland’s Overcranked Festival. To cap off a great year, they took home the 2006 Musicoz Award for Best Metal/Hardcore Band.
Determined to raise the bar, and to push their creativity and musicianship, FSPC headed back to the studio to record their second full length album, “Slaves of Virgo” which was released in 2007. The acclaimed release was a catalyst, propelling the band back onto the road with a headlining national
tour. They maintained large crowds while hitting every major Australian city at least three times in the space of four months. They continued to win over new fans at festivals such as Against the Grain, Sonic Forge Festival, Festival of the Dead, and Slayfest. FSPC supported The Black Dahlia Murder (USA) and Cephalic Carnage (USA) on their tour of Australia and New Zealand, allowing the band to perform overseas for the first time. FSPC wrapped up 2007 by performing and presenting an award at the 2007 Musicoz Awards.
The band continued to tour into 2008, supporting The Dillinger Escape Plan (USA) and playing shows consistently throughout the year including The Metalstock Festival.
In 2009, Five Star Prison Cell began to write their third album while continuing to perform live to Australian and New Zealand audiences. An extensive New Zealand tour has been scheduled for late in the year, along with a slot on the 2009 “Summer Rage Festival” roster. The band will perform at the First Annual Australian Metal Awards, and has also been named as a finalist for three of the award categories including the award for “Best Live Band” and “Best Film Clip”.
With demand for their back catalogue remaining high, an independent re-release of “The Complete First Season” and “Slaves of Virgo” is in the works. In 2010 Five Star Prison Cell will release their highly anticipated third album and embark on their most intense touring schedule yet including a
confirmed tour support slot with an internationally reknowned band as well as their own twenty-eight date headlining tour across Australia, which is sure to solidify the band’s grip on audiences.
£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David
